There is significant anti-genocide faction within the democratic party that is trying to change things from within. There is nothing like that within the GOP. The only way to stop this (and the broader unconditional support of Israel) is through the democratic party. However small you think the chances of success of that strategy, leftists offer literally zero alternative paths to this outcome that have any chance of success.
This is vibes-based. The DNC will not cease support for Israel because the US State needs it for its Imperialist ambitions.
Why do you believe organizing and building outside pressure has zero chance of success? Why do you think the DNC will magically work against their material interests?
Feel free to come back and apologize when I end up being correct and the DNC never ceases support for Israel without outside pressure and risk of system destabilization.
They can be made to cease unconditional support for Israel which is the only reason Israel has no incentive to work for peace.
Probably because you and you guys have never provided a plausible possibility for how that would happen?
Unconditional support for Israel can be made to be against the DNC's interests. But you have no interest in that. You just make noise.
How and why?
We have, what do you disagree with?
Again, how and why? You like to say things that sound nice but you never seem willing to back them up.
